Topics Covered
Course Goals
Learn how to transform a reference image or a live set-up into a convincing and compelling still life painting.
Proportions
You will begin with an underpainting that is easy to adjust - ensuring that your proportions are correct before working in colour.
Layering Detail
You will learn a simple and effective method to build your painting - adding detail gradually, so you won't be overwhelmed at any point.
Rendering Forms
You will focus on how to control the relationship between light, shadow and halftone in order to create the illusion of 3D form in your painting.
Painting Textures
You will develop a feel for different type of textures and learn how your brushwork, colours and values can be controlled to create different textures.
Materials + Equipment
You will learn how to prepare surfaces, select the right type of brush for each stage of the painting, mix mediums and choose the right colours.
